POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH in Gene Engineering and Regulation
NIH and privately funded positions in the following areas:
1. Structure-function studies using directed mutagenesis and expression
in E. coli of interleukin-6 and other cytokines in conjunction with
molecular modeling, crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. See PNAS
(USA) 85:9226-0430 (1988) for more information.
2. Regulation of genes in response to acute trauma. These studies will
involve the use of transgenic animals, tissue culture and biosynthetic
production of novel recombinant cytokines to characterize the
physiological functions of and regulatory factors in the acute phase
reaction.
Applied Biosystems DNA and peptide synthesizers, HPLCs, and Evans and
Sutherland PS390 graphics workstation etc are available in our lab.
Individuals with experience in protein chemistry, enzymology, molecular
genetics, molecular modeling, or biochemistry are encouraged to apply.
